This
is another photographic essay capturing the images around me and expressing the
loneliness these images express during this period of COVID-19 pandemic. It is a world of light and shadows.
Photography
is my means of seeing and dealing with this world that seems to be comprised of
light and shadows. During this time of
voluntary isolation from the virus, I find my self in a Yin and Yang situation,
trying to balance my isolation in this constant conflict.
The
morning begins with slivers of light creeping on to the walls from the world
outside. It is a world I seem to find
myself separated from. I have become
increasing aware of this dance of light and shadows and I try to capture each
of their movements. The shadows appear
to fracture the objects around me as the light becomes more intense.
It
has become an obsession of creative ways to photographically visualize the
various shadows that have invaded my environment. And, in doing so, I have become acutely
aware of me. Photography, therefore, has
become my visual poetry of this penetrating darkness that seems to be the
normality right now.
